Critic Reviews
"This large, stylish book takes the reader on a quick tour through the history and discipline of psychology, with tiny bits of information and loads of design. The title gets it right: these are indeed big ideas (and also plenty of small ones), and the explanations are simplified and presented in a number of ways." (PsychCentral.com)
"The Psychology Book is packed with everything you'd ever study in a Psych 101 class, and, as the subtitle suggests, it's all explained in a clear, simple way." (Wink Books, from the cofounders of Boing Boing)

Horrid narration, dull except when it came to over-pronunciation of names
Narrator seems to pour more energy into wanting to show her prowess in pronouncing foreign names than she did in narrating the actual text. Awful, brutal, unlistenable.
